Second book of 25grooves25 with 27 new grooves plus as much Minus One for drums & bass.In this second book the Minus One tracks on the CD are complete from the first bar with a few exception for grooves that needs the drum solo. The choise is iby difficulties encoutered by some students to deal with the Minus One drums of 25grooves25 volume 1 with the first bars supported only by click. The fact of including a CD containing the perfomarce is very useful to better understand what I haveed in the bookand which might seem to complicate at a first reading. It has been a difficult task and I hope it will find appreciation among those whoapproach drums with enthusiasm. This selection obviously includes research on the work of the perfoBiographies and photos come along with each and every stage of the work, from the very beginning of the artistic carrer till today.

This book is designed for the intermediate/advanced drummer to improve musical, technical control and reading ability, and presents several rhythmic styles, such as funk, jazz and Latin. I'm not trying to educate you on the 'correct' Cuban or Brazilian grooves, but have used this music as an inspiration for different phrashings and concepts. In the notes you can find book recommendations to explore the styles fully. Please feel free to use the material creatively, like repeating bars when you feel like it. You can also use the pieces for advanced sight reading, but I suggest that you take time to look carefully at the dynamics and stickings. All the stickings are basedon a right handed player (please reverse them if you are left handed). The basic concept is to have rhythmic compositions with basic classical notation and technique, that you can play on a drumset or on a practice pad with your feet stompin' at the floor. The first part is snare and bassdrum with hi-hat foot suggestions. Later in the book hi-hat (with stick) and snarerim are added. The advantage of these concepts is that playing through these etudes is very closely related to what is going on in modern music. Especially important for players in Jazz, Rock and Latin, but also very useful for a classical percussionist who needs solid music training. The last part of this book is a few pages of technique studies and rhythmic concepts that is related to the compositions. The purpose is not to include all basic strokes and principles (there are already many great books for that) but to show you some concepts that I have found useful and special through my years of playing and teaching.
